Scream - The TV Series

I think this deserves its own thread because I will be obsessing over it until it premieres. Can't freaking wait!! haha

In the “Scream TV Series,” everyone has secrets. Everyone tells lies. Everyone is fair game. What starts as a YouTube video going viral, soon leads to problems for the teenagers of Lakewood and serves as the catalyst for a murder that opens up a window to the town’s troubled past.

Official Trailer:

Definitely giving me Scream vibes (morsoe Scream 4, but still)... that house is soooooo similar to the original Stab movie!! Love all the nods to the original: opening death, garage scene, randy meeks-type character, etc.

Promo #1 - "This Summer":

Hands down my favourite promo for the show!! Such a sassy voice over... LOVE IT. The meta thing is going to work great for tv! Really hope they stay true to having at least one death an episode.

Promo #2 - "Goodbye":

This promo is a little spoiler heavy, but I think its already heavily implied that Bella Thorne is the opening death... ala Drew Barrymore. Either way, i'm pumped!

The thing people need to remember is that Scream was never about Ghostface. It was about making a meta satire of the horror genre.. and it looks to be continuing that trend with focusing on horror tv shows!! (hello Hannibal, Bates Motel, AHS, etc).. mask or not, I'll definitely be tuning into this!! It's perfect for MTV.. teen drama, horror, on a network that doesn't have to shy away from blood (Teen Wolf). I'm in!!!

I think it's going to be a lot of fun. Campy, funny, and a touch of darkness. There's a lot of potential and I'm excited to see where it goes. At the very least it will be a decent way to kill time during the summer!

That's one opinion on the subject & I get what your saying lol. But Ghostface was definitely a big part of the Scream movies. I am to big of a Scream fan not to give the show a chance though. I am praying it does good enough to get a 5th movie made.

This show will be everything, I can't wait. I also want to see Ghostface because it won't feel like Scream if we don't see someone in that costume.

Agree 100%. Huge fan of the entire series and actually was hoping for a fifth movie (only for them to bring Kirby back, and yes I'm a believer of her surviving her stabbing). But without Ghostface, it will just feel like a slasher series, but I'm ok with that. It's going to be a great show and definitely something different.

Not sure how I feel about them "re-creating" scenarios and things from the original because they did that with Scream 4 in so many ways:

-New Sydney, new Tatum, new Randy, new Billy, etc.

-Garage scene

-Originally planned hanging and student tied to a chair in the opening

Just finished watching Scream 4 which I hadn't seen since it came out back in 2011... actually surprised how well it held up 4 years later. I quite enjoyed it!!! They may have over done it with the funny "meta" stuff, but it was still a great slasher... a great 'modern' slasher I should say, and those are really hard to come by!! Even if the TV is a success or a bomb (I truly think it'll be a success... it has a great writing team, Craven is backing it, and MTV has been producing some quality shows as of late) i'm still hoping for there to be a Scream 5... the 4th ends so abruptly!! I want some full closure for Sidney!! haha

I will be shocked if this show does any good. From what I have heard the die hard fans from the Scream movies are ****** about the fact that there will be no Ghostface. Leave it to mtv to **** this up by making dumb decisions.

I doubt this will happen but I would like to see some cast members from the series return. I still think there is a possibility Kirby is alive because we didn't get to see her fully die on Scream 4. She was my favorite character of the new generation! I'm really excited for the death scenes. I wonder if they will use similar ones from the movies. My favorite death scene was Tatum getting crushed by the garage. Tatum could have escaped if she just pressed the garage button then ran out! I really didn't want her to die. My favorite characters are usually the sidekicks like Kirby, Randy and Tatum. Crossing my fingers that Sidney makes at least one appearance in the show.

Considering the show isn't set in the town of Woodsboro I doubt we would see any of the characters from the movies incorporated into the show. However I did read somewhere if they do another movie they might try to include the characters from the show into the movie somehow. I agree though besides Sidney, Dewey & Gale my favorite characters from the movies were Randy & Kirby because of their love & knowledge of horror movies. Also Tatum was a cool character she was bad *** & didn't take **** off of anyone. She wasn't scared of Ghostface when she should have been, I have always wished her character would have made it to the sequel. Another character I came to really like was Cotton, to bad he didn't do more than a cameo for Scream 3.

I really think they should put ghostface in the series. It's just not Scream without it.
But I'm thinking maybe they want this show to have it's own flare and maybe that's why they won't go with Ghostface but still though..like I said that's apart of Scream that should not be altered.
